When asked to describe a home with more than one cat, many Americans use words such as "smelly" and "dirty." In fact, according to a recent Purina Tidy Cats' survey, 87 percent of non-cat owners think multiple cat homes have hair all over the furniture, carpet and floor, and 48 percent say they expect a home with two or more cats to have stains on the furniture or carpet.
